The new Undercover Area

The New Toilets

Frontline Fatalities

The sound of gunfire rattles away in the night,Soldiers in trenches pumped up for a fight.Attack with forces to kill and maim,Casualties rise as meters are gained.

Over the top it’s time to go,Bullets flying past high and low.Over the top it’s time to die,One last look towards the sky.

The sound of gunfire dies away,The wounded moaning in awful pain.‘Momma momma” a voice cries,The dead and wounded gazing at the sky.

The firing stops and magazines are reloaded,Two days of death lying still and bloated.

Went to war thinking it was fun,Just the pleasure of holding a gun.The thought of fun quickly fades away,As the horror of death occurs everyday.

The firing starts up once again,Of artillery and bullets a heavy metal rain.Soldiers cling to dear earth,Knowing their death will be quicker than birth.

From Dreamtime To Nightmare

A long time ago before white people came,

Black people hunted, Danced and sang.

Different tribes had their own ways,

By living their lives day to day.

A long time ago before white people came,

The Dreamtime Serpant acknowledged black peoples way.

By creating large mountains, rivers and lakes,

The Dreamtime Serpant creates it’s wake.

A long time ago when white people came,

They Saw a society thousands of years unchanged.

A foreign race came and changed all that,

Sacred sites desecrated and tribes attacked.

A long time ago when white people came,

Bringing their law and their violent ways.

Peaceful tribes chased and hunted down,

Massacre sites buried underground.

A long time ago came a stronger race,

Forcibly taking from a weaker race.

The Dreamtime vanished when the singing stopped,

The sign of times when everything was lost.

Government Wars

In war torn countries refugees flee,

Fleeing governments who commit atrocities.

Their own government who kill and rape,

The truth sealed in political red tape.

As usual the strong stand over the weak,

The rich looking down on the poor’s misery.

Political leaders who sit on top,

Pulling the strings of soldiers and cops.

Private wars are being fought,

Government and guerrilla forces fighting the cause.

Government soldiers are puppets on strings,

Politicians and generals annihilate commie things.

In war torn countries refugees flee.

Their home country shattered no more to be free.

Atrocities committed in the cruellest way,

Civilians massacred and tortured day to day.

Finding a new home in another place,

Wars causing misery upon the human race.
